Heaven has welcomed home a sweet angel. Our beloved sister and aunt, Sandra Carol Nugent (Butcher), of Kent, Ohio, died peacefully at Robinson Memorial Hospital on April 26, 2013 surrounded by her loving family.

Sandra was born March 10, 1949 in Ravenna, Ohio to the late French N. Butcher Sr. and Reva C. Butcher, both originally from Weston, WV.

Sandra dearly loved her family, friends and all furry creatures. She enjoyed music, dancing and loved to go shopping. She welcomed everyone she met with a big smile and pleasant conversation. Her open friendliness and happy spirit filled everyone that knew her with warmth and tenderness. She will be sadly missed by all who loved her.

She is survived by her brothers, French N. Butcher (Nick) of Mantua; Michael C. (Martha) Butcher of Kent, who lovingly cared for Sandra for the past six years; Sisters-in-law, Allison Butcher of Kent and Kathleen M. Butcher of Ponce de Leon, FL; Nieces and Nephews, DeAnna (Rick) Butcher-Curtner of Cuyahoga Falls; Thomas (Nancy) Butcher of Ravenna; Claudia (Kevin) Franko of Deerfield; Jennifer Butcher-Wampler of Windham; Sarah Bower of Kent; Donna Butcher of Ponce de Leon, FL; Donald (Kristy) Butcher of Ponce de Leon, FL; fourteen great nieces and nephews and one great-great niece.

Sandra was preceded in death by her parents; her brothers, Donald L. Butcher and Vaughn E. Butcher and her sister-in-law, Alma J. (Krebs) Butcher.

Our family would like to thank the staff of the Palliative Care Unit at Robinson Memorial Hospital for the kindness, care and support that they gave to Sandra and to us during her short illness.

At Sandra's request, there will be no calling hours or services. Cremation has taken place. A private service for the family will be held at the home of her brother, French N. (Nick) Butcher in celebration her life.
